Is it possible to replace the strap on the road trainer. I have now bought at least 4 because the straps don't last.

Hi Georgia, I am on my 3rd watch:( I love them but they are not durable my straps have broken also. You can mail it to Timex because they do have a warranty and I think they can fix it . I haven't done it because... I wanted to replace my watch right away. In the back of the Timex booklet for the watch it has all info for mailing.

I had the same problem with the straps and had to get a new one. So I don't think so. It's the weak point of this product, unfortunately.

PROBABLY the best solution would be to contact Timex. you will have the number on your warranty/manual literature. it may be more feasable/cost effective to simply get a new watch and keep the other strap as a backup.but definitely check with timex

It made a wonderful Christmas gift. Very pleased! I imagine if you can find a shoe repair shop they could easily fix it because they use industrial threads and machine....if you can find a shoe repair shop. They do exist, I've had other straps and a buckle taken care of at one. Best of luck

It is not a clean fit but you can make it work. The bottom strap will work but the other straps will not. It worked fine I my long trip but it is a little cumbersome to get on and off. For the price is get it again.

Sorry I never replied here -- but here's a link to some photos of the strap setup (scroll down to the bottom of the discussion):http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=440646

based on pictures I looked up of "h1 transmitter" it appears to be the newer one. it is definitely a cheaper/lower quality strap. The sensors are in a rubber/plastic strap that is mounted on the elastic strap. My older (more expensive) cycle transmitter strap had the sensors actually woven into the elastic strap, not a separate plastic/rubber piece. Also, the elastic of this strap is lower quality and has a few rough spots that itch my skin in back so I have to put it over my sports bra in back. Lastly, the hook/eye on this new on is ribbon sewed onto the elastic strap :( vs my older cycle strap in which the eye that the hook connected too was more seamless as part of the strap; it was not a separate sewn on piece and for sure not "ribbon" material. on the plus side tho, you can change the battery vs the old one in which I found required professional replacement of battery (at a true polar authorized dealer). Again, for $104 it's fine but I would be returning it had I paid $179 + tax & shipping as it's advertised on Polar's site.

Mine didn't come with the strap either. Like someone else commented, I don't think they do unless you order them directly from Seat Pets' web site.

I had the old version with part of the strap was leather. I had that strap for a few years but I used the strap about 2 - 3 times a week. I always rinsed the strap after use and let it dry. The new version does not have any leather in it, so I can't tell you how long it will last since I just got it.

the strap is a basic velcro strap. Other parts no sure. I dont see it breaking from normal use.

Nope, I haven't. Better to use straps from an older pair you don't wear anymore or just get a new pair in my opinion.

I don't know about a replacement strap, but the heart rate monitor snaps onto the strap so you can definitely wash the strap.

I would buy new Velcro strips, in my town available at Jo Anns and Walmart, probably other stores. this is probably 2 or 3 dollars. This is assuming the Velcro on the body of the support is still good. If it is worn too, make the strip an inch or two longer to so it will go onto unworn Velcro on the main body. The other suggestions sound workable too. Ignore the Velcro problem and just sew a few stitches to hold the straps in place. then slide it on and off like a glove.

Has anyone else actually done the modification M. Ferguosn suggested in his posting? Also, what 6 screws? I only see four on the side near the strap lug. Thanks.

I, personally, have never worn any of the pads out, so I haven't had any need to know how, or where, to replace them. I would expect the mfr. would know, but it may be just aseconomical to buy a new one! You must be very hard on the brace - using it for sports??

My husband does not use the strap. He did confirm that there is only one place to attach. You could possibly call Chapin and get an answer. Sorry we could not be more help.
